We live much of life amid unique choices. Joy is anchored in The One beyond our life.
There are times when solitude is better than society, and silence is wiser than speech. We should be better Christians if we were more alone, waiting upon God, and gathering through meditation on His Word spiritual strength for labour in his service. We ought to muse upon the things of God, because we thus get the real nutriment out of them. . . . Why is it that some Christians, although they hear many sermons, make but slow advances in the divine life? Because they neglect their closets, and do not thoughtfully meditate on God's Word. They love the wheat, but they do not grind it; they would have the corn, but they will not go forth into the fields to gather it; the fruit hangs upon the tree, but they will not pluck it; the water flows at their feet, but they will not stoop to drink it. From such folly deliver us, O Lord. . . .
― Charles Spurgeon


Our anxiety does not empty tomorrow of its sorrows, but only empties today of its strengths.
― C. H. Spurgeon


Hope itself is like a star- not to be seen in the sunshine of prosperity, and only to be discovered in the night of adversity.
― Charles Haddon Spurgeon


If sinners be damned, at least let them leap to Hell over our dead bodies. And if they perish, let them perish with our arms wrapped about their knees, imploring them to stay. If Hell must be filled, let it be filled in the teeth of our exertions, and let not one go unwarned and unprayed for.
― Charles Spurgeon


A Bible that’s falling apart usually belongs to someone who isn’t.
― Charles Spurgeon


Visit many good books, but live in the Bible.
― Charles Spurgeon


When your will is God's will, you will have your will.
― Charles Spurgeon
(Philippians 2:13, KJV)

Happy New Year all the day
to young and old alike!
"Happy New Year!" It's what we say
before we start the hike.

Happy Year on this new day!
Happy Day each year!
"Make our wisdom, what to say,
ever Your's, Lord, clear."

Happy New Year's life we live!
Joyful be our ways!
Wondrous Lord to always give
our living hearts and praise.

"Happy New Year!" be our words,
until we see The Day
of flying nowness with Heavenly birds,
and years no more we'll say.

Happy 20/20 sight!
The vision's clearly seen.
May light be seen throughout the night
with hopes and joys made clean.

Happy New Year! Hope your soul
is blessed more every day
with a living spirit, fully whole,
now drawn to sing and pray.

Happy New Day, Fellow Man!
The Lord has lived and died,
and lives, again, by His own Plan,
that in Him you may hide.

"Happy New Year!" What a thought!
The calendar of grace extends
to save you as He ever taught.
The Past he truly mends.
